SUMMARY
The BASIC Stamp can be programmed to switch a circuit with a light emitting diode
(LED) indicator light on and off. LED indicators are useful in a variety of places
including many computer monitors, disk drives, and other devices. The LED was
introduced along with a technique to identify its anode and cathode terminals. An LED
circuit must have a resistor to limit the current passing through it. Resistors were
introduced along with one of the more common coding schemes you can use to figure out
a resistor’s value.
The BASIC Stamp switches an LED circuit on and off by internally connecting an I/O
pin to either Vdd or Vss. The
internally connect one of its I/O pins to Vdd, and the
internally connect an I/O pin to Vss. The
Stamp to not execute commands for an amount of time. This was used to make LEDs
stay on and/or off for certain amounts of time. This amount of time is determined by the

The
LOOP
loop, the program can still be re-started by disconnecting and reconnecting power or
pressing and releasing the Reset button. A new program can also be downloaded to the
BASIC Stamp, and this will erase the program with the infinite loop.
Current direction and voltage polarity were introduced using a bi-color LED. If voltage
is applied across the LED circuit, current will pass through it in one direction, and it
glows a particular color. If the voltage polarity is reversed, current travels through the
circuit in the opposite direction and it glows a different color.
